Here's some more info: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms177283(SQL.90).aspx Basically if you -open SSMS-go to your SSAS database-click 'Roles'-right-click on the role you'd like to duplicate-In the menu that appears, select 'duplicate'Then you get a wizard that walks you creates a copy of the role for you, and then you can tweak it how you like.I hope that helps a bit; I'm sorry I didn't provide more detail originally. Hope your day goes well,Jen
